How to Draw a Dabbing Person
Draw a dabbing person in 13 easy steps, about 10 minutes. Free, with a printable worksheet.
Each picture adds one red line. Draw that line, then scroll to the next picture. Rub out any dashed helper lines at the end. First up: the head.
Step 1: The head
Draw an egg for the head, tipped over to the left. Keep the chin end a little narrower.
Tip Draw it left of the middle: one arm will point far out to the right.
Step 2: Hair
Draw hair over the top of the head. Sweep a fringe across, with a side piece by each eye.
Step 3: Big eyes
Under the fringe draw 2 big eyes with a black dot and a shine. Add a tiny U nose.
Step 4: Arm across the face
Draw a long sleeve across the chin, sloping up to the right. Round its left end for the elbow.
Tip Rub out the chin inside the sleeve. The mouth hides behind the arm.
Step 5: Fist
On the high end of the sleeve draw a round fist with a thumb bump.
Step 6: The top
From under the sleeve draw a shoulder on the right. Draw 2 sides down to a flat hem.
Step 7: Straight arm
From the right shoulder draw a long straight sleeve, sloping up like the first arm. Add a mitten hand.
Tip Both arms point the same way: that is the dab.
Step 8: Shorts
Start at the hem's left corner. Draw shorts: down, across, up between the legs, back to the hem.
Step 9: Legs
Under the shorts draw 2 straight legs, a little thinner at the ankle.
Step 10: Sneakers and ground
Draw a sneaker on each ankle, toes pointing out, with a sole line. Add a long ground line.
Step 11: Peach skin
Colour the face, the fist, the hand and both legs peach. Leave the eyes white.
Step 12: Orange top, blue shorts
Colour the top and both sleeves orange. Colour the shorts blue.
Step 13: Brown hair, red sneakers
Colour the hair brown and both sneakers red. Go over your lines and you are done.
